Achieving seismic inversion without 4D logs in the North Sea’s Blake field ///

Seismic inversion today still remains central to oil and gas exploration success, generating accurate rock property estimations and realistic geologic models of the reservoir. Yet, whether it is pre-, post-stack or simultaneous inversion, the success of seismic inversion is fundamentally dependent on the information interpreters can provide, and whether the initial models honor the structural details within the reservoir.
